Is there any information on what this actually entails?

They actually generate zero trash/garbage? They ship nothing in a box or bag?

I think I read that they reuse or recycle everything from that one plant. But the story is hard to glean from the pile of words.

Looks like they are all written around the same press release.

Interestingly, they burn dust at plant 17:

Yeah, it's weird.


That plant is basically their import and reship plant for parts and engines I think. Maybe it only applies to stuff they keep in house?

I have been completely unable to find what the criteria is.
